They are visions of life as well as ways of life, are individual and personal in nature, yet bind adherents together communally. Coming to understand a worldview can serve to illuminate particular beliefs and values, and may be helpful in a post-Christian, post-modern or even post-secular era filled with religious, spiritual and secular beliefs of various kinds that hold sway today in the public realm. This article looks at Christianity through a worldview lens using an “ultimate/existential questions” framework (who and what are we; meaning and purpose; responsibilities and obligations; discerning right from wrong; power, force or being greater than humans; and life after this life) to get at the heart of some fundamental Christian beliefs and values.","PeriodicalId":224329,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Adult Theological Education","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126108128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How that learning impacts current and future practice varies widely. In this article I explore a placement undertaken as part of ordination training at Mill Grove, a witnessing ecclesial community which has been a home for over 1,000 children over the past 113 years. I discuss a range of issues relating to placement learning. In exploring the context and then using a version of the pastoral cycle I identify a range of insights and implications for my future practice both as a theological educator and a priest particularly focused around the theme of love.","PeriodicalId":224329,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Adult Theological Education","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114157166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Western world churches need to engage with a society that is open to spirituality and even inspired by Jesus, but less attracted to church. What does this mean for theological education and how churches train leaders? How can missional spirituality – spirituality that sustains and focuses the mission of the church – be best taught in classes and online? This article addresses these questions by expanding on Robert Banks’s Reenvisioning Theological Education and investigating how spirituality is taught as reflective practice. Reenvisioning theological education and missional spirituality happens best when it cultivates inner contemplation and outer engagement, and when it relates faith to everyday life and local contexts. The article shows how these principles will be the basis of refreshed curriculum design to teach missional spirituality including a new online subject.","PeriodicalId":224329,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Adult Theological Education","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127261205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article attempts to explore how the notion of “divine calling” as part of organizational discourse establishes a particular set of relationships between the individual and the organization, and thus contributes to the ways in which individual clergy identity is formed. Through intersecting a situated learning perspective with a Foucauldian approach to discourse analysis I seek to illuminate the particular mechanisms, technologies and strategies that are employed to maintain the existing system and its construction of Salvation Army officer identity in relation to the organization.","PeriodicalId":224329,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Adult Theological Education","volume":"338 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134129280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article evinces some quintessential aspects of the ancient Christian practices of spiritual direction and formation and their current bearing on adult faith formation in the Eastern Orthodox tradition, the focus being on spiritual formation carried out through a Spirit-led spiritual father – spiritual son/daughter relationship.
